你為什麼會信?主耶穌的十字架救恩使我感動,我願意做出接受的回應。(永生弟兄已經問過這問題了,我可以再答一次。請不要推出「感動」就是強迫的結論。) (新約)
約(Jhn)
3:3 耶穌回答說,我實實在在的告訴你,人若不重生,就不能見神的國。
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
弗:2:4 然而神既有豐富的憐憫。因他愛我們的大愛,
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
2:5 當我們死在過犯中的時候,便叫我們與基督一同活過來。(你們得救是本乎恩)
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
===============因為神的重生,使我們從死里復活,我們才能因信得救。
你的信心從何而來?從神造人時,將自己的形象放在人裡面那刻而來。人天生被造,就有「被感動」、「回應」、與「選擇」的能力。這能力是從神而來。
1. (新約)
羅(Rom)
3:11 沒有明白的,沒有尋求神的。
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
弗2:3我們從前也都在他們中間,放縱肉體的私慾,隨著肉體和心中所喜好的去行,本為可怒之子,和別人一樣。
Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
==============陷在罪中的人,沒有能力主動選擇神。
你們得救是本乎恩,也因著信,這並不是出於自己,乃是神所賜的。
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
==============得救,信心都是神所賜的。
所有人都聽到福音了嗎?生前看來不是。也因此我們才有虧欠,因此我們才有大使命,因此我們每個教會都應該有不斷地差傳工作。—— 至於人死後,神是否會給沒聽過福音的人再一次機會,我想,那超越了我們所應該知道的。 居然死了還有機會,你偏得不小。 |
